Probably the first few years or so everything that was on my computer was pirated straight up to the OS. Now for the past few years I have gotten all my software courtesy of my company I work for...straight up to the OS.

Everyone has their own reason to use pirated software, from taking a shot a corporate America to plan old can't afford it...even though I personally beleive that companies could afford to drop the prices quite a bit. Unfortunatly we are getting to a point where people that can't shell out 6 bills for software like office are getting left behind in the job market.

TO keep a long story short I think that if you can pay you can play and if you can't pay you too can also play!! Just be honest about it and don't be greedy...*ill *ates
